 CLASS PROPHECY FOR 1950 It is a grand day, this June 3 I960, here in New York City. We have just come into the building of the New York Times. Going into the office, whom should we see but Nancy Allard- ing and Patricia Bentzler as copy girls, typing away. A.s we walk farther, we see at the editor's desk none other than Earl Lichtenberg, and conversing with him is his assistant editor. Silverius Polster, our number one reporter, comes rushing in with the story that Carol Leichtle,the new Broad- way star, is to marry Clifford Dogs, the latest discovery of the New York Yankees. After we get over that shock, Kenneth Bodden comes in with a few pictures of David Hartman who is the director of one of the biggest animal hospitals around here. As we come back home again we find we have missed Ivy who is now living on a farm near home. Ohl We also forgot our big- gest fellow student, Ralph Giese, who has now taken over his dad's trucking business. We wish you all the best of luck in the future. Ivy, Nancy, and Earl CAN YOU PICTURE?

ENTERTAINMENT Our entertainment year started with the initiation party which the sophomores gave the freshmen. On the morning of September 24, a day which the freshmen shall never forget, the girls came dressed in bib-top overalls, knee boots, woolen shirts, a bow for each leg, a man’s felt hat, a necktie, a suitcase, and a mouthful of paraffin. The boys came clad in a girl’s robe with a pillow pinned in back to resemble a bustle,one bare leg and one stock- inged, one high-heeled shoe, a bow on each leg,a corsage of beautiful vegetables, a clothespin necklace, and last but not least, a suitcase and a paraffin-filled mouth. All day long we were subject to sophomore hazing. IXiring the noon hour the sophomores paraded us about town. Then they gave us whisk brooms and toothbrushes with which we had to sweep and scrub the sidewalks. As we were troop- ing back to school, Constable Lawrence Steger arrested the whole freshman class for disturbing the peace. Later we found he was only joking. In the evening we were given a horror-provoking trip through the torture chamber. The evening was concluded with a wonderful lunch. We invited the last year’s soph- omores back for our Hallowe’en party. We enjoyed our- selves by playing games and finishing off the evening with an appetizing lunch. We spent the first two hours of our Christmas party go- ing caroling. Then we came back to school for games, lunch, and our gifts. Ted and Quentin T. H. S.
